In case when tcp socket received FIN after some data and the parser haven't started before reading data caller will receive an empty buffer. This behavior differs from plain TCP socket and leads to special treating in user-space. The flow that triggers the race is simple. Server sends small amount of data right after the connection is configured to use TLS and closes the connection. In this case receiver sees TLS Handshake data, configures TLS socket right after Change Cipher Spec record. While the configuration is in process, TCP socket receives small Application Data record, Encrypted Alert record and FIN packet. So the TCP socket changes sk_shutdown to RCV_SHUTDOWN and sk_flag with SK_DONE bit set. The received data is not parsed upon arrival and is never sent to user-space. Patch unpauses parser directly if we have unparsed data in tcp receive queue.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
